Delia had her first egg hunt! That's right, I am one of those dog people and I embrace it.
It was just one six-pack of plastic eggs that happen to have little air holes in them, each with a small aromatic treat or two.
Delia knew that there were treats in that bag and she watched me "hide" them from the deck.
And they weren't hidden very thoroughly for the most part.
These are simply the three most photogenic of the six.
After dispersing them around the yard, her papa let her off the deck and joined us for The Hunt!
She did a pretty good job once she realized that the treats were no longer in the bag, but her having watched me hide them didn't seem to effect her efficacy, if you know what I mean.
This was the hardest one for her to find and she went around and around before we pointed it out to her. It was the only one we helped her with and also the only one hidden above her head, so that probably had a lot to do with it.
She was so gentle with them, too! The first four she just poked with her snootle until one of us opened it up for her and gave her the treats. The last two she did pick up in her mouth, but very gently and offered them to one of us immediately.
I hope to make this a tradition... it was so dang cute!
THANKS EASTER BUNNY! [brock! brock!]
There are no doubts anywhere that this is among the cutest posts ever,
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I love this. Of course I do as if I had a dog I would be one of those dog moms too. Delia is the sweetest and how adorable she gently picked it up and brought it to you to open for her.
ReplyDeleteI mean,I knew it was going to be cute and entertaining to watch her - assuming she would get what was going on, but I was not prepared for just how adorable it was.
